If it is at your wastegate, I had the same problem. I noticed it when I saw the black exhaust soot on my radiator. I took mine off and angled it so that where it mates up w/ the bolt is pointing at a 45 degree angle w/ the bolted side still toward the frpnt of the car. Sorta up and not directly at the radiator. Tightened it up good. Heated up the manifold by running the car, let it cool and tightened again. No more soot. You wont be able to get the clamping surface to meet at the bolted side no matter how much you tighten it.
